Greetings from ETG BookCafe

[etg.bo...@yahoo.com]

Hello everyone!  Happy summer to you!

   We are happy to announce a new art exhibition on our gallery walls!   "Things That Fly and Swim" is an eclectic gathering  of works by local artist/designer Everet.  Several of her pieces tie into "Magicicada", the celebration of cicadas  that opens this Saturday, July 10th at The Staten Island Museum at Snug Harbor.   Click here to learn more about that:  Magicicada at SI Museum

We will be hosting an informal art reception to "meet the artist" on Saturday July 24th from 2pm to 4pm...  please come to appreciate the art, to mingle with others, browse our books, and visit our backyard garden!  Artwork will be available for sale.

 Tomorrow, July 10th, is City of Water Day, so we encourage you to come and participate in Artmaking in Tompkinsville Park from 11am to 2pm, presented by SI Urban Center--youth and adults are welcome!  Also stop by Tompkinsville Park any day to appreciate the new sculpture installed there; it is a metallic arch created by artist Musa Hixson, inspired by Eric Garner, and dedicated to Peace, Justice and Healing. It is designed to be stood under, and "calls for people to be mindful of the humanity and unique value of all people, by the act of putting yourself in another's position."

We look forward to seeing you soon!

Warmly

Katie and Nadette
